It’s easy to guess the correspondence of some days–for example, Sunday and Monday are ruled by the sun and moon respectively. However, the English names for the days of the week derive mostly from the names of Norse gods, but we’ve named the planets after Roman gods, so it does take some thought. Tuesday, for example, is named after the Norse god Tyr who was the god of victory, heroic glory, and single combat. This is most like the Roman god of war, Mars, so Mars is Tuesday’s planet. Mercury rules Wednesday–and it’s a lot easier to see why given that most other European languages use his name as the root of that day (mercredi (French), mercoledì (Italian), miércoles (Spanish), miercuri (Romanian)). Wednesday derives more from “Odin’s Day”. While Odin is a complex god, he is also associated with widsom, poetry, and magic–all Mercurial traits. Thursday, or Thor’s day, corresponds with Jupiter–which is fitting as both were “thunder gods”. Friday–or Frigga’s day–is associated with Venus, which works out nicely as both are love goddesses.

Saturday is the only English day where the name derives from a Roman god–Saturn–so that day is easy enough to see the correspondence. (In Old English, the original name for this day was sunnanæfen, or “sun” + “eve”.) Planetary Correspondences Every hour in each day, though, also has a planetary correspondence. My thought on the matter is that the hour’s planetary energies wouldn’t necessarily supercede the day’s planetary energies, but it would augment them. For example, a Martian hour during Friday might be great for particularly passionate, animalistic lovemaking, while a Mercurial hour on Friday would be good for having meaningful conversations with your loved ones. The day’s hours begin with the time of sunrise on that particular day. Therefore, if the sun rises at 6:42 am, the first hour runs from 6:42 to 7:42. The last hour of the day would then run from 5:42 on the subsequent day to the minute of the following day’s sunrise. Therefore, the last hour of the day will frequently not be a solid 60 minutes.

The first hour of each day is given the planetary correspondence of that day; for example, hour 1 on Monday will also be ruled by the moon. The hours then run in order from the above chart, and repeat at the eighth hour. The cycle repeats until the end of the day. A complete chart is available below: The log of Magical Hours within each day To complete the day’s information, Roderick asks us to answer the following questions: Find out the time of sunrise from your newspaper (or timeanddate.com). Consider the day of the week and calculate the magical hour you are in right now. I’m working this exercise on Wednesday, April 17th and the sun rose at exactly 6:19 AM today in Olympia, Washington. It is currently 1:53 pm. That means that I’m in the middle of the 8th hour, which is ruled by Mercury today. What types of magic are best suited for this planetary hour? Well, Mercurial magic is best suited for all manner of communication work–magic, knowledge acquisition, writing, talking, etc. Check the newspaper for tomorrow’s sunrise time. What is the planetary influence at this same time tomorrow?

Sunrise is at 6:18 AM tomorrow, which means I’ll still be in the 8th hour at 1:53 tomorrow. The planetary influence at that time, however, will be Jupiter. Like this: Days of the week in English Days of the week in English Origins of the English names for days of the week Monday - comes from the Old English Mōnandæg (day of the Moon) and is a translation of the Latin name dies Lunae Tuesday - comes from the Old English Tīwesdæg (Tyr's day). Tyr (a.k.a. Tiw, Tew or Tiu), was the Nordic god of single combat and heroic glory in Norse mythology. The name is based on Latin dies Martis (Day of Mars). Mars was the Roman god of war. Wednesday - comes from the Old English Wōdnesdæg (day of Woden). Woden or Odin was the top Norse god, and a prominent god of the Anglo-Saxons in England. It is based on Latin dies Mercurii (Day of Mercury). Thursday - comes from the Old English Þunresdæg (the day of Þunor).

Þunor or Thor was the Germanic and Norse god of thunder. It is based on the Latin dies Iovis (Day of Jupiter). Friday - comes from the Old English Frigedæg (day of Frige). Frige was the Germanic goddess of beauty, who is a later incarnation of the Norse goddess Frigg, but also connected to the Goddess Freyja. It is based on the Latin dies Veneris (Day of Venus). Venus was the Roman god of beauty, love, and sex. Saturday - named after the Roman god Saturn from the Latin it was diēs saturnī (Day of Saturn). Sunday - comes from the Old English Sunnandæg (day of the Sun). This is a translation of the Latin phrase dies solis.

The Pagan Origin of the Days of the Week Most people are NOT familiar with how the names of the days of the week actually got their names and what they signify. As believers in God and followers of Christ, we find it necessary to bring this information to ALL people who follow after the ways of the Lord. For too long now we have accepted this so called “reality” that the government pushes on us and called it “freedom”. It is time to wake up and see the wickedness being handed to us on the plate.

Paul talks to the people in Galatia about them falling away and turning back to observing days, months, times, and years. Gal 4:9-11 But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage? Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years. I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labor in vain. Now if we break apart this set of verses, we will see some interesting things about the reality Paul was telling them about. The first thing Paul mentions is the “turning again to WEAK and BEGGARLY elements.” During the era, paganism and witchcraft were very prevalent all through the land. In these false religions, the people worship the elements of the earth – Air, Fire, Water, & Earth. So it is apparent the Galatians had turned back to their astrology, and earth worship. Then, Paul mentions they were observing days, months, times, and years again. During the time, again, was mass usage of astrology and paganism.

All the solstices are watched and prepared for (according to the calendar of today) by pagans to enhance their life in some form or another. When these solstices come around, it is a time a reveling and strengthening for the pagan involved in witchcraft. The Galatians had gone back to their ways of old – away from God! They had turned to the greek gods again! Now, if the believers at Galatia were being corrected in the Spirit of the Lord by Paul about turning back to the weak and beggarly elements and for paying attention to the days, times, months, and years, then why aren’t any of the “Prophets” or “Teachers” of today doing the very same thing? It is because they do NOT want to step on anyone’s toes if it might harm their reputation with the people. Paul said this to the Church at Corinth: 1Co 9:16-17 For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!

For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me. Therefore, The Gospel of Christ tells us to not turn back to the elements; so lets find out what we have been turning back to without the knowledge of doing so. The pagan origin of the names of the days of the week, we will begin with the first day of the week, commonly referred to as Sunday. It is far too obvious to see how the enemy has been lying to us. Satan has deceitfully led us all astray into giving honor to the greek gods of mythology. You are encouraged to copy & distribute the information contained in this study course.

The Romans identified Mars, the god of war (whom they had inherited from the Etruscans) with Hellenic Ares, but among them, Mars stood in much higher esteem. “Tiw’s” day is derived from Tyr or Tir (god of war)  Tyr (Old Norse: Týr) is the god of single combat and heroic glory in Norse mythology, portrayed as a one-handed man. In the late Icelandic Eddas, he is portrayed, alternately, as the son of Odin (Prose Edda) or of Hymir (Poetic Edda), while the origins of his name and his possible relationship to Tuisto (see Tacitus' Germania) suggest he was once considered the father of the gods and head of the pantheon.

• Germanic *Wōdinaz. His name is related to óðr, meaning "excitation," "fury" or "poetry," and his role, like many of the Norse pantheon, is complex: he is god of wisdom, war, battle and death. He is also attested as being a god of magic, poetry, prophecy, victory, and the hunt.

Odin is the chief god of Norse Mythology and is often called the “all father” THURSDAY th 5 day of the week • • • Derives its name from the Middle English “THORESDAY” or “THURSDAYE”, corresponding to the Roman god Dies Jovis Thor is one of the 12 great gods of Norse Mythology Thursday was sacred to him FRIDAY th 6 day of the week • • • Derived from Germanic, Frigga (name of the Norse god Odin’s wife) Frigga is considered to be the mother of all, and the goddess who presides over marriage  In Norse mythology, Frigg (Eddas) or Frigga (Gesta Danorum) was said 1 to be "foremost among the goddesses," the wife of Odin, queen of the Æsir, and goddess of the sky. One of the Ásynjur, she is a goddess of marriage, motherhood, fertility, love, household management, and domestic arts. Her primary functions in the Norse mythological stories are as wife and mother, but these are not her only functions.

She has the 2 power of prophecy although she does not tell what she knows , and is the only one other than Odin who is permitted to sit on his high seat Hlidskjalf and look out over the universe. Corresponding Latin name is Dies Veneris (a day dedicated to Venus, the goddess of love SATURDAY th 7 day of the week • Corresponds to Roman Dies Saturni (Day of Saturn) • Also represented by Loki, the Norse god of tricks and chaos  It is the only day of the week to retain its Roman origin in English, named after the Roman god of time Saturn, calling it dies Saturni, "Saturn's Day". Many of the other days of the week adopted names of Saxon gods in Northern Europe, in Anglo-Saxon. There also exists a possibility that the modern English form derives from Anglo-Saxon "Saeter daegv", as Saeter "Saturn" was regarded as a correlary of Loki by Northern Germanic peoples As you can see, the days of the week ALL represent a god in some form or another and we, as followers of Christ, need not turn ourselves back to the weak and beggarly elements that once held us in bondage.

We should not be observing days, months, times, nor years, because we are not suppose to be even worrying about tomorrow, only today. There is even more about the day of Saturn that corresponds to Satan himself, you can find more on that subject in the Truth document, Living in the World, available on the website, You are encouraged to copy & distribute the information contained in this study course.

October 26, 2011 The Anglo-Saxons had seven days of the week. Just like us, they had Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The difference is that the days of the week were named after their Gods all except Saturday which was named after a Greek God. So, we’ll start with Sunday, Sunday was named after the sun which was worshiped as a God.

They gave it the name of Dies Solis, another name for Dies Solis was Dominica. Sunday was ment as the “day of the sun”. Its modern english name is Sunnandæg. Then there is Monday, Monday was named after the moon which also was considered as a God. They gave it the name of Dies Lunae. They worshipped the moon as a god because of the moon cycle. They thought that it was special. After Monday there is Tuesday. The gave this day the name of Dies Martis. Tuesday was named afeter the god Tiu. He was the god of war and the sky, also the god of single combat, victory and heroic glory. He was also once considered as the father of the gods, and head of pantheon. Wednesday is the day right in the middle of the week. The name gave to this day was Dies Mercurii. Wednesday was named after the god Woden. Woden was the most anglo-saxon known God. He is the most common god , because he is the chief of Gods. Another name given to Woden was Grim which means ‘Masked One’. Then there is Thursday.they gave it the name of Dies Jovis.

It was named after the god Thor. Thor is the god of thunder. Thor is the most powerful god. He has a famous weapon. His hammer, named mjolnir. He also has a belt of strength, named Megingjardir. At night Thor would ride his goat-ridden chariot across the sky, which would create the sound of thunder. The last day of the week, well it is Friday. They gave it the name of Dies Veneris. Friday was named after the god Freya. Freya was a warrior goddess. He was also the goddess of love, marriage, beauty, war and death. She had considerable powers. freya had a prized possesion which was her famous necklace. Freya had several nicknames. She was called Lady, Great Goddess, Seer and few others. She was a sweet and generous women, when people or other gods didn’t make her mad, or did something really bad to her or someone else she cared about or liked. So this is how the days of the week got their names. Interesting facts: They are named after the Gods and the planets of the solar system. The Gods are well known by people. Was the sun considered a God?

Before this presentation, did you think the days were named after the Gods? The World Saxons Believed In The Saxons believed midgard is one of the nine worlds. Midgard is their definition for middle earth. Midgard is a realm to norse mythology. Midgard is surrounded by sea. It is impossible to pass because it is guarded by giant sea serpents. Poem from Prose Edda It is named ‘wind’ with the Humans. But ‘waverer’ with [the Æsir] the gods. [The Vanir] the enchanting-rulers call it ‘neigher’ [making sounds like a horse]. The Jötnar ‘shrieker’ [during deadly arctic storms]. The Álfar ‘whistler’. In Hel, [the dead] call it ‘squall’ [a sharp increase in wind speed before a rain]. Vindr heitir með mönnum.

The nine worlds are menn (world of humans), Aesir (world of gods), Vanir (2nd world of gods), Jotnar (world of giants), alfar (world of elves), Dregar (world of dwarves), primordial(element of ice), primordial(element of fire) (1) menn- (miogaror) it is the home of humans with the literal meaning “middle enclosure”. (2) aesir- (asgard) It is the country or capital city of the Norse gods surrounded by a incomplete wall attributed to a hrimthurs riding the stallion svadifari. (3) vanir- ( Vanaheimr) It is the home of the Vanir, a group of gods associated with fertility, wisdom and the ability to see the future. (4) Jotnar- ( Jotunheimr) is one of the nine worlds and the homeland of the Giants of Norse Mythology. Theres Frost and Rock giants. (5) Alfar- (Alfheimr) its home to the Light elves in Norse mythology.

appears also in Anglo-Scottish ballads under the form Elfhame (Elfame) as a fairyland, Nowadays we sometimes call it as Elfland (Elvinland) (6) Nair- (Hel) In norse mythology hel is a person that rules nair. Back then to say “Go to Hel “ is to tell someone to die. Same meaning as today but, nowadays the meaning isnt as serious. These 6 worlds each represents a different type of family. It’s separate from the other 3 worlds according to the Norse Mythology. (7) Dvergar- (Svartalfaheimr) Home to Swart elves or black elves in norse mythology. They are soley attested (origionally not included I think) in Prose Edda (which is a fairy tale in the norse mythology). Also according to the poem this world isn’t really included. The last two of the homeworlds are less certain. Usually, the list adds the primordial realms of the elements of ice and fire, counting them as “homeworlds”.

The place name of the element of ice, Niflheimr, means the arctic ‘Mist Homeworld’, suggesting it is one of the Nine ‘Homeworlds’. (8) Primordial element of ice- (Niflheimr) “Mist Home”, the “Abode of Mist” or “Mist World” is one of the Nine worlds and is a location in Norse Myhthology which overlaps with the beliefs of Niflhel and Hel. (9) Primordial element of fire- (Muspellsheimr) In Norse mythology, Muspelheim (“Flame land”), also called Muspell, is a realm of fire. Neflheim and Muspell mixed together creates water from melted ice ( muspell’s fire melts Niflheimr’s ice) according to Ginnungagap (primordial void that existed in creation of universe.) Runes are alphabet. The letters looks like these: Runes were all made of streight lines, so they were easier to carve. Each runes had a name like example‘joy’ or ‘ash tree’ = The word rune means secret or mystery. Runes had a religious meaning, that meaning was used in ceremonies.

There was a charm or spell as well as a way of writing messages. This is why TO SPELL (meaning writing something: SPELLing a word) and A SPELL (meaning a magic spell) are the same words in English. The Anglo-Saxons believed that if you used the right runes in the right order, they could have magical powers. They believed a prisoner could magically release itself by curving certain runes on the walls, I guess that’s the reason why we always see prisoners curving words and numbers on the prisons wall. Some other words like READ and WRITE are now used today because of runes. Writan = to carve runes and Ridan = to interpret runes. Kennings A kenning is a form of metaphor, originally used in the Anglo-Saxon and Norse poetry. In a kenning, an object is described in a two-word phrase, such as ‘whale-road’ for ‘sea’. Some kennings can be more obscure than others, sometimes close to being a riddle.The first kennings used by the poets were simple in structure. They expressed a single idea or thought and were compounds of two words. Ex: “horse of the sea” which means ship.

Kennings such as these soon became so popular that about one-third of the text Beowulf was composed of kennings. They were used so frequently, it caused some kennings to become clichés. Ex: “ring-giver” for every prince. It became so popular, that it came to the idea to put kennings into kennings. Ex: “horse of the whale-road”. These compound kennings were so popular that the Anglo-Saxons and the Norse poetry contained a great number of them. Kennings continued to go even farther than the level of “horse of the whale-road”. October 21, 2011 King Arthur the legend: Arthur was the first born son of uther pendragon and hier to the throne. When Arthur was young the wizard merlin advised that he should be be raised in a secret place so none could try to kill him and take the throne. As merlin feared when king Uther died there was a great conflict over the throne. To solve the problem, merlin placed a sword in a stone with these instructions written on it: “whoso pullth out this sword of this stone is the rightwise born king of all england.

Of course Arthur was the only one who was able to pull the sword out! Arthur was a brave and loyal king and he enjoyed destroying his enemies. Arhur lived in a castle in camlot. He and his knights often went on quest such as the holy grail. One of these quest helped arthur get excalibur from the lady of the lake. Later in his life arthur married a woman by the name of guinevere. Everthing in camlot was going great until arthur found out that guinevere was having an affair with sir lancelot, arthur’s best knight and friend. This made arthur go nuts. Not long after that a civil war broke out in camlot. In the final battle at camlon both arthur and mordred (arthur’s treachous nephew) were wounded mortally. Arthur was put on a boat and floated away to the isle of avalon. There his wounds were treated by 3 mysterious maidens. His body was necer found. Some people think that one day a reincarnation of king arthur will come to life but there is no proof suporting that.

King Arthur is a legendary british leader of the late 5th and early 6th centuries, who according to Medieval; histories and romances, led the defence of britain against saxon invaders in the early 6th century. The details of Arthur’s story mainly composed of folklore and literary invention, and his historical existence is debateted and disputed by modern historians. The legendary Arthur developed as a figure of international interest laregely through the popularity of Geoffrey of Monmouth’s fanciful and imaginative 12th century historia Regum Britanniae (History of the kings of Britain). Arthur appears either as a great warrior defending Britain from human and supernatural enemies or as a magical firgure of folklore, sometimes associated with the Welsh Otherworld, Annwn. Geoffrey depicted Arthur as a king of Britain who defeated the Saxons and established an empire over Britain, Ireland, Iceland, Norway and Gaul. Many elements and incidents that are now an integral part of the Arthurian story appear in Geoffrey’s Historia, inculding Arthur’s father Uther Pendragon, the wizard Merlin, Arthur’s wife Guinevere, the sword Excalibur.

The Dragon had mortally wounded Beowulf and that eventually killed him. In his second battle Beowulf killed Grendel’s mother. She was angered by her son’s death, then Beowulf and his men track her down to her liar under a lake. After Beowulf dives into the water he is attacked by Grendal’s mother and because of his armour she is unable to harm him so she drags him to the bottom of the lake.

After taking him to the cavern where her son’s body still is, Beowulf and Grendel’s mother engage themselves into a combat. With the help of one of Beowulf’s men they kill Grendel’s mother and Beowulf beheads her. First battle in the poem Beowulf is contained in the Nowell Codex. As noted in lines 105–114 and lines 1260–1267 of Beowulf, Grendel and his mother are described as descendants of the Biblical Cain. Beowulf leaves Geatland in order to find and destroy Grendel, who has been attacking the mead hall Heorot, killing and eating anyone he finds there. Grendel attacks the hall after having been disturbed by the noise of the drunken revelers. One cryptic scene in which Grendel sits in the abandoned hall unable to approach the throne hints that his motives may be greed or revenge. After a long battle, Beowulf gets fatter and mortally wounds Grendel by ripping his arm off. Grendel dies in his cave under the swamp.

Beowulf later engages in a fierce battle with Grendel’s mother, over whom he triumphs. Following her death, Beowulf finds Grendel’s corpse and removes the head, which he keeps as a trophy. Beowulf then returns to the surface and to his men at the “ninth hour” (l. 1600, “nōn”, about 3pm). He returns to Heorot, where he is given many gifts by an even more grateful Hroðgar . The end Roman God of War – Witches Of The Craft® DAILY MAGICKAL APPLICATIONS FOR TUESDAY Tuesday is the day associated with the planet Mars. In mythology, Mars was the Roman god of war. If you’re wondering how this day came to be named, it’s because to the Norse, Anglo-Saxon, and Germanic people, this day was Tiw’s day (Tuesday). Tuesday actually got its name from the Norse deity Tyr, Tiw, or Tiu, who was also a god of battles and courage. This deity was very similar to the Roman Mars, and the names of the days of the week became switched and substituted as the Germanic peoples replaced the older deities with their own gods.

So the name was changed from the Latin Dies Martis (“Mars’ day”) to the old English Tiwesdaeg. The Norse god Tiw, or Tyr, was known for his sense of justice, discipline, and integrity. This day’s planetary influence brings with it the aggression, bravery, and honor of soldiers, as well as the passion and strength of those of us who must fight for what we believe in. —Book of Witchery: Spells, Charms & Correspondences for Every Day of the Week Ellen Dugan Ten Things You May or May Not Know About Tuesdays 1.
